Lauren Bello

Trying to piece through all of this… interesting tidbits of info, for sure.

@daela You touched on a question that fascinates me.

RE…Russell Eaton? A reference to Sabrina intentionally withholding during their iConfidant correspondence, so she could get a reaction out of him at the meet and greet? Were they taking emotional “readings” from him,…

First of all, top-notch anagram work @chrysalis359 @coryphella and @daela.

@lazysmartperson Who is the “he” that she’s talking about? Based on the response that Buz received, the first part of her post sounds like it is directly aimed at our trusty creators, but I think she’s referring to someone else at the end. It could be someone that we’re…[Read more]

@daela That sounds right!!! Who would that be?

@daela WINS THE LUST EXPERIENCE

@daela

@daela I personally think core is referring to the participants. Is the copy cat part referring to recent confusion of other ARGs calling and people thinking it’s LUST?

@daela Yes WHY are they targeting us and WHAT visit!? If the core IS us, they think we don’t like each other and are just pretending? Is that based off of iConfidant emails where people may have spilled the beans on who they don’t like, as Sabrina suggested? And what does it mean that they are bringing some back into the fold? Who is LB? Is that you??

So many great points in your recap, @daela, but this in particular stood out:

“This was the molting, guys! Sabrina shedding her digital skin and showing her true self.”

Was all the discussion of shadows, shedding skin, and Tool lyrics simply been foreshadowing Sabrina’s evolution? That was one of the most consistent themes we have seen thus far,…[Read more]

@daela if we’re operating under the assumption that it’s Horace who called myself and the others last night (I don’t have a good reason to doubt it,) then it’s telling that he and Tom both gave thanks for the upcoming sacrifice. It ties in with @shankfx22‘s theory of them both working towards the same goal. Horace through the System/the Head and…[Read more]

@clairebuch I wonder if the goal was just to lure us in with the iConfidant correspondence just to track our behavior to ultimately bug all of our homes like @daela. If they can detect our home IP address activity they can figure out when we’re not there.

iConfidant may have been an elaborate phishing attack on us so to speak.

I still go back…[Read more]

@daela I took that line from Stacey as her trying one final time to assert that she had control over the situation. Saving face, almost, that she ran everything. Except for, you know, not knowing who the iConfidants themselves are. Which as it turns out is a pretty important detail.

There’s also the fact that if the group/person who planted the bug reads these boards or is in regular communication with someone who does, all of Stacey’s attempts to be discreet during her visit would be for naught.

@daela Stacey knows that you’d be likely to post about her visit to the forum, so if being sneaky about it was her goal, why…[Read more]

I have to agree with @thegilded in thinking the most likely interpretation is not that Stacey was happy because of finding the specific bug @daela was targeted by… but that it is simple, absolute confirmation that a bug existed.

She is obviously surrounded by powerful people, right? Perhaps she had been doubting herself because of all the…[Read more]

@coryphella I agree. If Stacey thinks that the can start exposing the inner workings of this operation and remain unscathed, she’s about to have her week RUINED. Is it so crazy to imagine that Noah or Michelle reached out to her? Stacey didn’t know exactly where the bug was, or if it was even there at all when she showed up at @daela‘s house.…[Read more]

I’ve had to go back and read @daela‘s original post a few times, because I’m having a hard time imagining the Stacey from the video as someone capable of espionage and rooting around in a stranger’s house to find a bug and take down whoever has her over a barrel. As much as she seems confident enough to start a small company, she didn’t seem like…[Read more]

Bless you for tracking this one down @brianamatopoeia.

Look at the angels, etc, chasing away the soldiers, sat upon the bodies of the fallen, to clear the way for the peaceful portrait in the center. We were shown the desired result without the consequence.

Stacey thinks she’s “back in charge.” What is he fallout of her presumed disobedience in…[Read more]

On further thought, this may bring up a second concern. Maybe Stacey wasn’t trying to find Lauren’s specific bug. Maybe she was just trying to confirm the idea that people assigned iConfidants were bugged to begin with.

Maybe it’s less that she was excited to find @daela‘s bug, and more that she was excited to confirm that we all are bugged.

– Maybe Stacey had a hunch someone was at (and bugged) your apartment @daela when she called you to ask about the internet traffic coming from your home IP address when you were at work?
– Maybe something about your account (or iConfidant correspondence) got her to think you were at risk of being bugged?
– Are we ALL bugged??
– Is iConfidant’s…[Read more]

This sounds like an Evil Twin device; a device that spoofs the SSID of @daela‘s WIFI and relays all data traffic to the real WIFI. This would allow a person to see all of @daela‘s internet use, emails, Rick and Morty streaming, etc.

…except for the part about it fitting in the palm of her hand, and her not willing to speak openly around i…[Read more]
